Can diabetes be prevented?

Diabetes, to many, sounds like a condition that's "here to stay" when it is diagnosed. After having talked to literally dozens of diabetes sufferers over the years, many came to the realization that changing a lifestyle and changing nutrition habits would help them.

Big surprise (not), exercise and healthy eating made diabetes in many of these people (some personal friends) go away completely. These folks now are adamant in telling people how to prevent diabetes in the first place, which is a great charge to undertake.

If you're considered pre-diabetic (or have diabetes now), do your own research and talk to your doctor -- and then kick diabetes to the curb as soon as you can.
